Samsung
clearly is setting their eyes on becoming the name in HDR capable
television sets.

This
as in September 2018 they have received the official HDR10+ logo
certification for its 2018 Premium UHD and QLED TVs being HDR (High
Dynamic Range) 10+ compatible.

Clearly,
Samsung was excited about this certification as related by Vice
President of Visual Display Business at Samsung Electronics, Doochan
Eum: “By making use of our leading technology and expertise, we
will continue to extend our valuable partnerships while maintaining
our commitment to providing consumers with best HDR content
possible.”

But
what exactly is HDR10+? And what does it mean for the typical home
theatre enthusiast seeking to purchase and set up a Home Theatre
based on Samsung Tech?

Samsung
and HDR10+ – Dynamic metadata for better image quality

HDR10+,
a next-generation core technology for ultra-high picture quality TV,
provides users with a premium HDR viewing experience and delivers
pristine images as originally intended by creators while contributing
to the creative activities of film studios and directors.

With
HDR10+ technology which helps HDR TVs to optimize brightness levels
on a scene-by-scene by incorporating dynamic metadata, Samsung TVs
can produce brighter highlights and darker darks for additional depth
and sense of realism on-screen.

The
HDR10+ certification program creates a foundation that provides
viewers with an enhanced viewing experience while also developing a
range of plans to extend the HDR10+ ecosystem.

Samsung
leads the HDR10+ charge – Partners on board to create content

Among
Samsung’s notable HDR10+ partnerships, TP Vision, which oversees
Philips TV development, manufacturing and marketing, will introduce
HDR10+ to its entire lineup of 4K TVs next year, and V-Silicon
(formerly Sigma Designs) will show a demo of HDR10+ in its private
booth at IFA 2018.

Film
production company Warner Bros. will also start creating
HDR10+-compatible contents, which will be available for home
distribution later this year. In addition to that, Samsung partnered
with Twentieth Century Fox Film Corporation to standardize the HDR10+
licensing process

This
will make it easier for content creators to realize its technology,
get closer to filmmaker’s creative intent and improve the viewing
experience for all audiences. Twentieth Century Fox is currently
exploring several titles for release and plans to announce their
availability in the coming weeks.

In
Europe, a popular VoD provider, Rakuten TV, is seeking to partner
with Samsung Electronics to provide HDR10+ premium entertainment to
European consumers. “At Rakuten TV, we have the mission to deliver
the best cinema experience at home,” said Sidharth Jayant, Global
Product Director at Rakuten TV.

Sidharth
Jayant declared that they had a partnership deal with Samsung, quote:
“Samsung is our premium partner in this regard, and our upcoming
collaboration on HDR10+ reinforces our commitment to be the VoD
reference platform for Smart TVs”.

He
was very confident that dynamic metadata to ensure the quality of the
image is maintained will matter enough to customers for them to
invest in; “With dynamic metadata added to the HDR signal, combined
with the widest 4K HDR catalog of new releases that we currently
provide to European Smart TV owners, we are confident Rakuten TV will
deliver an unforgettable cinema experience at home.”

So
will this work out? CES 2019 will provide more insight into the 4K
HDR as the content as well as the gear slowly falls into place.

]]>Caricel may still experiencing legal woes….but that apparently has not affected their bottom line.

They now have some 15,000 clients for their 4G LTE (Long Term Evolution) service, technically making them a third competitor in a space occupied by Digicel and FLOW.

Caricel’s CEO Lowell Lawrence has much to say about this, as their predicament is dire. “I truly believe that Caricel has been unfairly treated, and that is why we have and will continue to fight. Jamaicans deserve the same quality of telecoms service available in the developed world, and we remain dedicated to providing that”.

The Court of Appeal, in a ruling handed down on Monday, December 18, 2018 allows Symbiote Investment Limited, parent company of Caricel, to challenge the Supreme Court decision for them to cease operation.

So how did they reach this point?

Caricel and the Court of Appeal – Revocation order granted

Back in December 2018, the Supreme Court rejected Caricel’s application for judicial review of the decision by then energy minister Dr Andrew Wheatley to revoke the telecommunications licence granted to Symbiote Investment.

They also refused their challenge of the ruling before the Court of Appeal. Attorney General Marlene Malahoo-Forte also announced that the Government was soon to revoke Caricel’s telecommunications licence.

By Monday, December 18, 2018 lawyers for Symbiote Investment took their case to the Appeal Court. And guess what…… they obtained a ruling that stays Wheatley’s revocation order until Monday January 14 2019.

So what happens now, as the date has passed?

Caricel in Jamaica – Glimmer of hope for telecom competition

Caricel has invested some $9 billion in the rollout of their telecom infrastructure and product offerings as laid out in Caricel’s Unlimited Modems implies FLOW and Digicel going Unlimited in 2017.

Lawyers for the Government and Symbiote are to return to court on that date for a hearing on whether the company’s application for leave should be allowed. After all, the whole issues surrounds, as Symbiote’s lawyers have stated, an “alleged failure to disclose information concerning the signatories on a bank specimen signature card”.

Money is at the root of the dispute. Apparently Symbiote owes the government some money, as then Minister of Technology Andrew Wheatley told the House of Representatives that Symbiote had not complied with all the mobile spectrum licence.

Allegations about too, that special interest in the USA, Canada and Britain have an issue with the Board of management of the companies, who they believe to be not fit and proper to operate in the telecommunications sector.

But its hard to say this to people who use their services. They offer a glimmer of hope, as their services fill a gap that the other telecom providers do not provide.

And at the end of the day, that’s what counts…..I await more new on Caricel!!!

]]>“The traditional TV was only focused on technical features, such as picture quality and performance, but now TVs are also a lifestyle platform that blends in consumers’ daily life. This year’s models of The Frame and SERIF TV are enhanced lifestyle TVs that deliver a TV experience like nothing before.”

Jongsuk Choo, Executive Vice President of Visual Display Business at Samsung Electronics commenting on the Frame and The Serif TV at CES 2019

Samsung Electronics new 2019 lifestyle TVs, The Frame and The Serif TV, will be on display at CES 2019, the world’s largest consumer electronics show in Las Vegas.

The 2019 Frame and Serif TV combine award-winning and innovative design that fits any home décor with superb QLED picture quality and Smart features to provide consumers with the best possible TV functionality.

The Frame and Serif TV, Samsung’s flagship lifestyle TV lines, go beyond the traditional concept of a TV to pieces of home décor that elevate the design of any living space.

At CES 2019, this year’s Frame and SERIF TV will be on display in the large lifestyle TV exhibition zone of Samsung’s booth to showcase their innovative design, performance, and how they seamlessly blend into daily life.

The 2019 Frame by Samsung – Works of Art from Museums around the World

When it is not being used to enjoy TV or movie content, The Frame’s Art Mode displays digital pieces of artwork, including paintings and pictures, to turn an everyday living space into an art gallery as explained in Samsung and Magnum Photos intros Fine Art, Everyday Collection on The Frame.

In addition, The Frame’s Luminance Sensor adjusts colors on-screen to fit the ambient brightness of the room, delivering the optimal settings to display artwork on screen.

This year’s model of The Frame also features the pristine picture quality of QLED, which offers deeper contrasts, deeper and darker blacks and 100% color volume. With these enhancements, users can both enjoy content in the most premium quality and appreciate artwork when the TV is turned off.

In addition, The Frame’s Art Store is building on its partnerships with the world’s most prestigious galleries and museums by providing access to over 1,000 pieces of art. In the Art Store, masterpieces from the Uffizi Galleries in Italy, the Van Gogh Museum in The Netherlands, Te Papa in New Zealand have recently been added.

Samsung will continue to expand its partnership with museums in the future to strengthen the art distribution ecosystem.

The Frame also features Bixby, Samsung’s AI-powered voice control platform, transforming it into a truly Smart TV. Users can control the TV and access streaming platforms through simple voice commands giving users an enhanced content experience.

SERIF TV – A truly functional work of art

The Serif TV was developed an aesthetic-focused TV in collaboration with Paris-based design brothers Ronan & Erwan Bouroullec, two of the world’s most famous industrial designers that specialize in furniture.

The Serif TV was granted the prestigious 2016 iF Design Award, the 2016 Wallpaper* Design Award in the UK and the 2016 Good Design Award in Japan – making it the first Samsung TV to win these prestigious accolades.

1. News headlines and weather updates
2. The ability to display imagery
3. Blend into any living space when the TV is turned off

In the past, The Serif TV was sold almost exclusively in furniture shops and department stores given its focus on interior décor, but it will be available for purchase in consumer electronics retailers in 2019, as well, to reach a wider base of consumers.

It’s anticipated that the Frame and SERIF TV will be a hit with Samsung customers at CES 2019 that like the TV to be a truly functional work of art in their living room or space where people meet and mingle.

The CNSA (China National Space Administration) landed a rover called the Jade Rabbit 2 (Yutu 2) on the moon…and its already sending back some stunning images.

In so doing so, China has achieved the milestone of being the first country after the USA and Russia to land a rover on the moon that is sending back images.

The Chang’e 4 lander touched down on in the Von Kármán crater in early January around Friday July 4 2019.

Launched Sunday December 2nd 2019 from the Xichang Satellite Launch Center, the 120Kg Jade Rabbit’s which travels at a max speed of 200m per hour has a mission to survey the landscape and study the geology of the area.

This crater is located on the side of the moon that faces away from Earth, sometimes called “the dark side of the moon”.

The so-called “the dark side of the moon” receives plenty of sunlight as it orbits the Earth, as the side we always see is tidally locked due to Earth’s gravity. A better terms is to call it the Far side of the moon

This means that the Chang’e 4 lander and the Jade Rabbit 2 rover are able to operate using its installed solar panels. It’s already taking pictures such as these below. CNSA is using a relay satellite to send data back to Earth, including this panoramic stunner.

Hope they find some alien bases too….or at least some water so the Chinese can set up their moon base and we can join the party!!!!

“We will present
promising C-Lab projects leveraging AI technologies in the field of
video content creation, perfume making and more. These are deeply
related to our daily lives and we hope to catch the eyes of
attendees,”

Vice President
and Head of the Creativity & Innovation Center at Samsung
Electronics, Inkuk Hahn, giving a preview of what to expect from
Samsung C-Lab at CES 2019

Samsung Electronics
announced on December 28, 2018 that they would have showcased eight
innovative new projects related to Artificial Intelligence (AI),
developed from its C-Lab (Creative Lab) program, from January 8
through 11 at CES 2019 Eureka Park.

In addition, eight
start-ups which have been spun off from C-Lab will showcase their
newly released commercial products at CES to explore new business
opportunities.

The eight (8) new
C-Lab projects include:

An in-video
virtual ad service ‘Tisplay’

An ASMR sound
recording solution ‘aiMo’

An instant
video making service ‘MEDEO’

An AI news
analysis service ‘PRISMIT’

A custom
perfume making service ‘Perfume Blender’

An
auto-adjusting monitor ‘Girin Monitor Stand’

An AI desk
light ‘alight’

A hearing
assistant solution ‘SnailSound’

At CES 2019, C-Lab
will introduce the biggest number of projects it has ever unveiled in
a single show since its CES debut in 2016. This will help to refine
the projects and prepare the prototypes that will eventually become
finished products to take to market.

So what are these
new commercial products based on AI?

C-Lab Projects
– Samsung see AI as the future

The nature of AI is
rather complex and hinges heavily on machine learning algorithms.
C-Lab’s AI projects are best summarized using a few words and some
really cool visuals:

Tisplay –
in-video virtual ad service for live streaming

‘Tisplay’ is an
in-video virtual ad service for creators to use while live streaming.
Tisplay recognizes the surface of the creator’s clothing and places
the ads as if they were actually printed on the clothing through
computer vision and graphics technology.

Creators are able to
place not only ads but also various images related to the video
content in a way to communicate with viewers in real-time.
Furthermore, viewers can enjoy videos without pausing due to
mid-video pop-up ads which often feel like spam.

aiMo – Human-like
ASMR sound recording

‘aiMo’ is an
ASMR sound recording solution using a smartphone and cover case that
simulates the human ear. When recording ASMR content with this
solution, creators not only obtain spatially more enhanced sounds in
terms of sound directivity, they also produce vivid, realistic ASMR
sounds with AI sound rendering software without professional
recording devices.

‘MEDEO’ provides
an instant video making service which allows users to shoot and edit
simultaneously. Analyzing the scene and context with AI technology,
MEDEO automatically integrates visual effects and background music
and blends videos with the recorded videos during live streaming.

In addition to that,
it provides fully automated 1-click video rendering at an expert
level that extracts only the core scenes of the saved video.

PRISMIT – AI News
analysis for issue-driven timelines

‘PRISMIT’ is an
AI news analysis service which creates issue-driven timelines in
order to help readers understand the issue at a glance. When the user
searches an issue or event, PRISMIT automatically curates the top
five articles that are most representative among of the numerous
articles available using issue clustering technology.

This helps readers
understand the context and history of the issue while many services
simply offer the most read or most recent articles.

Perfume Blender –
Blending the right scent for you

‘Perfume Blender’
is a custom perfume making service that enables users to make a
customized fragrance with a compatible device and share the recipe
through the app. When the user takes a photo of their favorite
perfumes with the app, it analyzes the common ingredients and
recommends fragrance recipes that the user might like.

The user can
directly make the perfume with those recipes or create a perfume by
adjusting the ratio of the recipes through the device which has eight
ingredients. Users are able to purchase additional scents.

Girin Monitor
Stand – Computer posture is important to good health

‘Girin Monitor
Stand’ is an auto-adjusting monitor stand to ensure users have
proper posture while on their computers at work. The sensor embedded
stand keeps tracking the user’s posture, especially neck and head,
in real-time.

When the user has a
bad posture, it subtly moves the monitor which naturally trains users
to assume better posture without noticing the change in monitor
position. Users can correct their posture by repeating this pattern
to avoid postural strain in the neck, back, and shoulders.

alight – Desk
light for the best reading environment

‘alight’ is an
AI desk light which provides an optimal environment to increase
concentration and provides lighting which is beneficial for the
health of users. It detects user actions through the embedded camera
and automatically changes the light according to the situation such
as study, relax and focus.

It comes with a
controller which alerts the user to focus on study when the user is
using a smartphone or sleeping. It also provides study history and
time lapse videos of studying through the app.

SnailSound –
Better hearing for the hearing-impaired

SnailSound is a
hearing assistant solution for people who have trouble hearing
sounds. It consists of an app and an earpiece. The app analyzes
user-preferred sound from feedbacks by simple hearing tests, then
calibrates the sound to be heard clearer.

With a smart
nonlinear amplification and AI-based adaptive noise suppression
algorithms, SnailSound amplifies inaudible sound and suppresses
background noise at the same time to give a better hearing experience
to the hearing impaired without expensive hearing aids.

CNET C-Lab –
CES 2019 Innovation Awards winners now companies

In addition to these
projects, eight start-ups which have been spun off from Samsung
C-Lab:

Analogue plus
– Smart communication device for helmet users

BLUEFEEL –
Portable air purifier and mini head fan

Cooljamm
company – Automated music producer

LINKFLOW –
Neckband-form wearable 360 camera

lululab –
Artificial intelligence (AI) skincare assistant

MONIT – Smart
baby monitor

MOPIC –
Glasses-free 3D solution for any display devices

WELT – Smart
healthcare belt

They will
participate at CES 2019 to showcase their newly released commercial
products and explore global business opportunities.

Three of these C-Lab
spin-offs have been recognized as CES 2019 Innovation Awards winners.
One notable example is the wearable camera FITT360 by LINKFLOW, which
was given an award in the Digital Imaging category for two
consecutive years.

MOPIC and lululab
also received awards in the Portable Media Players and Accessories,
and Biotech categories. Since 2016, C-Lab spin-off companies have
been named winners six times and have proven their marketability and
technology.

Created in December
2012, C-Lab is an in-house idea incubation program that encourages a
creative corporate culture and nurtures innovative ideas from Samsung
employees. The program supports the development of ideas from all
areas of the business.

Introduced in 2015,
the C-Lab spin-off policy helps Samsung employees who have
successfully completed C-Lab projects to launch their own start-ups.
Samsung supports the spin-off companies through seed money investment
and business consulting to accelerate their growth, while
guaranteeing their independent management.

PlayerUnknown’s Battleground Mobile (aka PUBG Mobile) has been around for almost two years and it keeps getting better and better as its popularity is spreading among Jamaican teens and young adults whether in Universities or High schools alike. To break it down, PUBG Mobile is an online multiplayer battle royal where a player, or group of players, takes part in militant battles against NPCs and other players on large maps consisting of realistic weapons and gadgets associated with them. Gadgets include scopes, recoil arms, extended magazines, quick reload magazines etc. These all aid in the fun, but serious, game-play which is themed the last man or team standing. There are continuous updates, whether they are new weapons, maps or outfits based on the current season.

Maps

Screenshot of the three maps: Erangel, Miramar and Sanhok

Currently, there are three large map present in the games, each having its own unique geographic feature. Both Erangel and Sanhok have similar tropical environments with Miramar resembling a deserted island. The maps are very huge, giving players enough time to raid and loot houses for weapons, ammunition or med kits and other amenities vital for survival.

Screenshot of player landing on a map

Game-play

The game-play is rather vicious and technical due to various features present in-game. From the type of ammunition needed for a specific weapon to navigating the map using an internal compass, PUBG Mobile keeps the player on guard as one never knows when an attack wil be made.

PUBG mobile is all about strategy, teamwork, stealth and bravery as any real soldier would possess. You can download PUBG Mobile free on the Google Play store or Apple’s App Store. Good luck Comrade!

Long live GTA V?

Every gamer knows Grand Theft Auto V (also known as GTA V); an anticipated open world game back in 2012 that hit high sales in 2013 when it was released. As expected of GTA Series, the game did not disappoint as the world was more interactive than previous series and unique characters were introduced. However, over the years, its play-ability was taking a downward path; Was it due to its game-play or the fact that there was not much realism in that big world of Los Santos? Either could be the answer depending on one’s motive in playing the game. GTA V has come a long way and its game-play is taking a realistic spin thanks to its dedicated fans known as modders. These individuals have taken the initiative of making the game more fun and gravitating, as realistic aspects are added that are not repetitive or exhausted as game-plays of this genre usually are.

Executive Business

We all know GTA V is about missions, being the bad guy, having the freewill to do whatever violent acts and also running from cops. But have you taken into consideration the other possibilities that Rockstar creators could’ve added? How about owning and controlling a business? Buying and selling stocks? A mod by the name of Executive Business and alternatives such as Doomsday Heist Business changed the whole concept of GTA V. In Executive business mod, the player can purchase a business, buy and sell stocks in the business, improve or upgrade assets such as storage facilities and conduct errands that contribute to the overall profit of the business. Imagine leaving for work in GTA V; an actual job (although I cannot promise that that no violent tendencies won’t be involved) and earning money more than the businesses originally created in the game that each character can purchase. This is truly a realistic and interesting add-on to the game.

CARS, CARS and more CARS

Now that we have Executive Business installed, it means our characters are transitioning to a lavish lifestyle and what better way to display such lifestyle than to have luxurious cars. Adding vehicles to the GTA series is no new trick. All top brands, such as Lamborghini, Audi, Mercedes and even Rolls Royce, have addon models for the game. Driving a addon vehicle gives the game-play a realistic approach and these vehicle can be saved in the game without worrying about them disappearing. Persistence mod is used to carry out such task; it saves your vehicle (similar to you locking your car in real life) and has an alarm feature, similar to real cars, whenever an object touches it or is in close proximity. There is even a feature where the lights flash when either locking or unlocking the vehicle. Vehicle addons and Persistence mod adds a whole new level of realism into GTA V.

Be the cop

I’ve mentioned business opportunities, cars and alarms but what about twisting the overall story line of the game. What if you were the cop? What if you want a different lifestyle? LSPDFR is the solution to your problem. It allows the player to be a law enforcer and one can do almost everything a real cop does on a daily basis. The best thing about this mod is the fact that events are not repetitive because any one of the thousands of NPCs could be breaking a law. From traffic stop to pursuits, the possibilities are endless in this mod. You could literally stop any civilian and asks for identification, conduct a search and call for pickup if you suspect some level of guilt. One can examine license plates to check for validity by the use of the Computer plus extension. Highway patrolling is another phenomenal feature; you can align the cones as to control the traffic flow, record speeds of vehicles, issue tickets and much more. You want to be a cop? Use the LSPDFR mod.

Head over to GTA5-Mods for more mods and addons to make your GTA V, a real life simulator.

]]>“The Frame’s Art Store is the only digital art platform on TV. We will continue to develop it into a window to communicate with more viewers and a screen that enriches consumer’s everyday lives. Through the ‘Fine Art, Everyday’ Collection created in collaboration with Magnum Photos, we hope to bring to consumers joy and excitement in discovering new works from the comfort of their own homes.”

Vice President of Visual Display Business at Samsung Electronics, Sangsook HAN, commenting on ‘Art Store’ on ‘The Frame’ for 2018.

Samsung Electronics, in collaboration with renowned photography agency Magnum Photos, announced the release of 28 specially-curated photographs available exclusively in the ‘Art Store’ on ‘The Frame’ for 2018 on September 5, 2018.

As part of the collaboration, four Magnum photographers have been challenged to take a unique, eye-catching photograph every day for one week to showcase how The Frame is able to seamlessly integrate fine art into the everyday lives of consumers.

The “Fine Art, Everyday” campaign video will also be unveiled at the IFA2018 Samsung press conference. With a newly-announced 49” model, consumers can select between four different sizes (43”, 49”, 55” and 65”) of ‘The Frame’ that best suits the aesthetic and design of the home.

Samsung and Magnum – The Frame as a discovery Hub for works of art

To complement the exclusive photographs from Magnum Photos, ‘The Frame’ for 2018 includes a new ‘Slideshow’ feature that allows users to create customized collections of art that cycle-through on the screen when the TV is placed in ‘Art Mode’.

In addition, the new ‘Favorite’ and ‘Curation’ features allow users to gain easy access to their favorite and specially curated works of art to display on screen without having to sort through hundreds of options.

Along with the fine art partnerships, these added options have allowed customers to experience ‘The Frame’ not just as a television, but also as a discovery hub for the world’s most beautiful works of art.

‘Art Store’ on ‘The Frame’ for 2018 – Artiste works of art on showcase

The photographs of the four artists that will be showcased in the collection are:

Alex Webb

Carolyn Drake

David Alan Harvey

Jonas Bendiksen

With their images, these celebrated photographers will show consumers the beauty in everyday life.

Alex Webb has published 14 books including The Suffering of Light, a survey book of his color work. His most recent book, Memory City, is a meditation about film, time, and the city of Rochester, NY.

Webb’s works are best known for vibrant and complex color work, especially from Latin America and the Caribbean that have been featured in the Houston Museum of Fine Arts, the New York Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Guggenheim Museum.

Carolyn Drake became interested in the approaches to documentary at a young age – specifically the ways history and reality are purposefully shaped and revised over time.

]]>Within the next four months, Tax Administration Jamaica (TAJ) should have a fully operational mobile application (app) that facilitates motor-vehicle registration and fitness fee payments online. The app, designed to run on a mobile device such as a smartphone or tablet, will eliminate the hassle of waiting in long lines for extended periods at TAJ locations.

It will allow persons to search for a motor vehicle using the vehicle identification or chassis number; pay registration and fitness fees; view and print payment history; be notified about registration, fitness and insurance expiry dates; and utilise a selected courier service for document delivery.

The app is being developed by eGov Jamaica Limited through its Innovation Hub division. The working prototype was presented to members of the TAJ’s team on Tuesday (Nov 20) at the e-Gov Jamaica Limited offices in St. Andrew.
